Last week at #LivingData2025, I had the opportunity to meet so many inspiring people and learn about the incredible work advancing biodiversity data collection, standardisation, and mobilisation! www.linkedin.com/posts/fevziy...

Yesterday at ANDI - Asociación Nacional de Empresarios de Colombia, I spoke about the business case for investing in biodiversity data. Biodiversity data is a timeless asset, and it’s time we start valuing and financing it as such: www.linkedin.com/posts/fevziy...

I’ll be presenting “The business case for investing in biodiversity data” in the symposium: “Business sector & biodiversity data: towards a nature-positive future.” Thanks to Planetary Biology at SciLifeLab for their generous sponsorship! #livingdata2025 More info: livingdata2025.com/sessions.htm...
